    Salad from the cold bar at the buffet
    MaryLinda W.

    After hurricane Helene closed parts of I-40, we adjusted our route to and from South Carolina and we discovered Fiddler's on the way. It was conveniently located for us to stop for lunch on a Sunday. The parking lot was full, but we were seated quite promptly. The menu has multiple options, but we opted for the buffet which includes cold, hot, and breakfast items. The restaurant also has live music several times a month, and features different performers on the tables.

    Salad, chicken, mashed potatoes, broccoli & Cheez-It casserole, potatoes, roll, bacon, eggs, biscuit, and gravy, fried catfish and grits.

    Food was good. Servers were nice. We had some brunch and were pleasantly surprised. The water tasted a little dirty, but the other drinks were fine. The barbecue sauce was good and the honey mustard was yummy too.

    Dining area with wall photos and string instruments plus the buffet bar.

    Arrived for a small breakfast and found a fully stocked buffet. This former Shoney's has been transformed into a warm and so very friendly restaurant. The walls are covered with pictures of the beautiful local mountains. Adorning the entire restaurant are string instruments used in performing Blue Grass Music and the music is actually provided on weekends. The breakfast food and service was very good. We will return when in the area. Special notice to the bi-wing model plane at the end of the buffet.

    Fried chicken, Mac & cheese, mashed potatoes and gravy with mini blueberry muffins.

    Food was cold, and was not that tasty sadly. I was excited for a buffet but this didn't scratch the itch for me.

    The theme lends well to the name of the restaurant, and the light sound of country music helps.

I stayed in Bluefield and he lives in Princeton, but he met me here since it was on my way to Cherokee. This leg of the trip was to drop off some cash for Mr. Bob. A lot of it. No, not that kind of money. Clean money. Anyway... The staff here is super friendly, the atmosphere fits the area, and the place has some charm. It looks like the prices for the sandwiches are very fair, but I got a bagel, and the price for one bagel is too high. However, this is more of a sandwich and coffee shop; it's not a bagel store. I definitely recommend The Grind. I'm not really a morning person so I don't know what Bob was talking about half the time, but that's just me. Definitely recommended!

It is next to the Edith Bolling Wilson Birthplace Museum, so stopping here after a visit would be super easy. There were plenty of specialty drinks on the menu, and they trended towards the sugary direction. There were plenty of families enjoying the space, and options for kids and adults. My drink ended up being sugary-sweet and I probably would have asked them to dial it down if I had realized. On the plus side, they were able to get drinks out pretty quickly, in spite of there being quite the crowd. The space was clean and modern. Also, the bathroom was clean and very much appreciated on our road trip. I probably wouldn't sit and enjoy my drink here, due to the high traffic (at least when I visited). For a quick stop in, it's nice. I'll be sure to order better next time. Solid spot!

They allow RVs to park overnight in their lot with the kind but unspoken request that if you're having a meal in the area, that you should please have it with them in return for the free parking. So that's what I did! I arrived just after the dinner rush and was seated immediately in a corner overlooking where I had just lined up the Sprinter van in the lot. My order was taken and a few minutes later, here's dinner: Meatloaf with steamed broccoli and a side salad. Filling, hot, delicious and plenty of it. I skipped the biscuits and cornbread, which I would ordinarily share with Mrs. K. but this was a solo trip and I'm sticking to my keto guns. A great meal and I sat with my laptop for a bit (Cracker Barrel has wifi now!) planning the next day's journey. After dinner, out to the van and locked up for the night. A quiet night as this one is perched on top of the hill and a bit quieter from road noise. I departed at 5:15, too early in the morning for breakfast.

The older woman who waited on us was very nice and exuded Southern charm. She was the best part of breakfast. I ordered sausage gravy and biscuits, scrambled eggs and sausage. I tried to order grits, but they didn't have any. The coffee was very good and should I've taken a cup to go. The eggs and sausage were good.

The staff are friendly, especially Cricket . I wish I could rate the food higher but bottom line it's marginal. The home fries and hash browns are tasteless and very greasy. As for bacon, sausage and eggs they are ok, the gravy biscuit would have been OK had it been warmer. While the service was good, the food did not come out at the same time and my gravy biscuit had been sitting for quite a while and was cold and gummy. I had been in the past and the food was better . Time for improvement in the consistency area.

The family and I were on an adventure, heading up to Niagara Falls. I was using my trusty Yelp app to try to find a cool lunch spot. I saw Skeeter's, and knew we had to try it. So we jumped off the interstate, and wound our way down to the quaint downtown of Wytheville. It's a beautiful little town, and also the birthplace of Edith Boling Wilson, wife of President Woodrow Wilson. So we rolled into town and spotted Skeeter's nostalgic brick corner building. Very cool looking, and fitting for the 101 year old business. Alas, we got out of the car and excitedly walked up to the door,,, to find a CLOSED sign. We looked through the window, and could tell that we were missing something special. So we walked down to the street to a pizza place, and had a less than stellar lunch. Actually, it was just bad. So, went went off on our Niagara adventure, and a few days later we were heading home. It was nearing lunchtime, and we saw the sign for Wytheville. My wife said, why don't we try Skeeter's again. I called to make sure they were open, and we hit the streets of Wytheville again. We found a table at Skeeter's and started looking over the menu. They have plenty to offer besides hot dogs, but we had to try these world famous dogs. My wife and son got the regular "red weiner" dogs with fries. I had to go for the big 1/4 pound Black Angus dog. I was happy to find that they were in the process of changing their store over from Pepsi to Coke! As I said up at the top of this review, Skeeter's certainly lived up to the World Famous Hot Dog moniker! My big Black Angus dog was so good, that I had to order a second one! I think I can safely say, that if Skeeter's had been open on our way north, we would have still stopped on the way back, to enjoy it again! We found nothing bad to say about Skeeter's. The atmosphere, the decor, the food, the prices, the staff... all were absolutely wonderful! This is the kind of small town, hidden gem, that I love to find in my travels! We'll be back!

It's in this really charming historic building (apparently where First Lady Edith Wilson was born), and the whole place has that nostalgic mid-1900s vibe that just feels cozy and fun. Super cute spot. Our waitress was also really friendly and made us feel welcome right away, which always makes a difference. That said... the food itself was just kind of average. The hot dogs and fries weren't bad at all, just nothing that really stood out. For a place that's been around for over 100 years, I guess I was expecting something a little more memorable. It ended up tasting like something I could grab at a random country gas station. Overall, I'm glad we stopped in for the atmosphere and history, but probably wouldn't go out of my way for the food alone.
